About Sealachi
Equipment that earns your trust
Sealachi is a premium dive equipment distributor based in Hurghada, Egypt. A Lazuli Global company, we are the authorized regional distributor for Ugly Fish — handmade Italian drysuits built to measure for serious divers.
Our Story
Why we started Sealachi
Sealachi was founded to fill a gap in the regional dive equipment market. Technical divers in Egypt and surrounding regions had limited access to premium, custom-fit dive equipment — particularly drysuits built to professional standards.
We partnered with Ugly Fish because their philosophy matches ours: no shortcuts, no compromises, no mass production. Every suit is handcrafted by Italian artisans using the best materials available — Fothergill trilaminate, Cordura 1000, Masterseal zippers, and proprietary materials like Kryptonite.
As a Lazuli Global company, Sealachi benefits from established logistics, business infrastructure, and a commitment to operational excellence. We combine global standards with local knowledge to serve divers across the region.
Our Values
What guides every decision
Quality Over Quantity
We partner with manufacturers who build the best, not the most. Every product in our catalogue is there because it meets the highest standards of construction, material, and design.
Expert Guidance
Buying technical dive equipment shouldn't be guesswork. We provide hands-on support from model selection through measurement to delivery, ensuring you get exactly what you need.
Custom Fit
Every Ugly Fish drysuit is made to your exact measurements. Not adjusted from standard sizing — built from scratch. Because in technical diving, proper fit affects safety, comfort, and performance.
Reseller Support
We support dive shops and instructors with reseller pricing, training, and marketing support. Our goal is to build a network of knowledgeable partners who can represent the brand with confidence.
